I'm not a Herm pimp, but seriously, nobody could have thought this team was going to be competitive. And Carl said on his radio show that they thought the oline would be good enough because they were veteran.
I don't think Herm is a good coach, but he had to know better than that.
This is 75% on Carl IMO

I can only partially agree with this. I really believe Vermeil/Saunders would have made this line competitive because they would have had them pulling more...which is what this group does well (Macintosh might be the exception). Instead, Herm stubbornly had them blocking in a way that did not accentuate this group's skills...and for that, I will not let Herm off the hook. Carl should be fired because he hired Herm...but he is partially right when he says that this group could have been decent.
